#### 3. Single image and batch image prediction
#### 3. SINGLE IMAGE AND BATCH PREDICTION
The following code implements text detection and recognition inference tandemly. When performing prediction, you need to specify the path of a single image or image folder through the parameter `image_dir`, the parameter `det_model_dir` specifies the path to detection model, and the parameter `rec_model_dir` specifies the path to the recognition model. The visual prediction results are saved to the `./inference_results` folder by default.
